Sander is useless yet again. Why not try someone else?  What is his problem as of late? |

If USA pulls this set out, Russell is MVP of Set 1.

He's just playing timid. Seriously need to bring Jaschke in for him unless he plays with some balls. |

Problem is plain and simple. The serve and pass game is so poor right now for the US that they have to work way too hard to score points. That's a mentally tough thing to get over. I hope they can push through.

USA has now LOST 7 sets in a row since the World League, Coach what's going on, mix it up or something but to lose 7 sets in a row, not good.
